a pitcher throws a softball toward the home plate. when the ball hits the catchers mitt its horizontal velocity is 32 meters/sec

ond. the softballs velocity goes to 0 meters/second in 0.5 seconds when caught. if the softball has a mass of 0.2 kilograms, whats the force of the impact?

F = (mass)(acceleration) = ma

m = 0.2 kg

Vi = 32 m/s

t = 0.5 s

Vf = 0 m/s (since it was put to stop)

a=(Vf-Vi)/t

a=(0-32)/0.5

a = 64 m/s^2 (decelerating)

F = ma = (0.2 kg)(64 m/s^2)

F = 12.8 N

Verizon [17]

Answer:

0.625 c

Explanation:

Relative speed of a body may be defined as the speed of one body with respect to some other or the speed of one body in comparison to the speed of second body.

In the context,

The relative speed of body 2 with respect to body 1 can be expressed as :

$u'=\frac{u-v}{1-\frac{uv}{c^2}}$

Speed of rocket 1 with respect to rocket 2 :

$u' = \frac{0.4 c- (-0.3 c)}{1-\frac{(0.4 c)(-0.3 c)}{c^2}}$

$u' = \frac{0.7 c}{1.12}$

u'=0.625 c

Therefore, the speed of rocket 1 according to an observer on rocket 2 is 0.625 c

when two object P and Q are supplied with the same quantity of heat, the temperature change in P is observed to be twice that of
Ahat [919]

<h2>When two object P and Q are supplied with the same quantity of heat, the temperature change in P is observed to be twice that of Q. The mass of P is half that of Q. The ratio of the specific heat capacity of P to Q​</h2>

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity

It is defined as amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree celsius .

It is given as :

Heat absorbed = mass of substance x specific heat capacity x rise in temperature

or ,

Q= m x c x t

In above question , it is given :

For Q

mass of Q = m

Temperature changed =T₂/2

Heat supplied = x

Q= mc t

or

X=m x C₁ X T₁

or, X =m x C₁ x T₂/2

or, C₁=X x 2 /m x T₂                                 (equation 1 )

For another quantity : P

mass of P =m/2

Temperature= T₂

Heat supplied is same that is : X

so, X= m/2 x C₂ x T₂                            

or, C₂=2X/m. T₂                                   (equation 2 )

Now taking ratio of C₂ to c₁, We have

C₂/C₁= 2X /m.T₂  /2X  /m.T₂

so, C₂/C₁= 1/1

so, the ratio is 1: 1

A 1000 kg car’s velocity increases from 5 m/s to 10 m/s. What is the change to the car’s kinetic energy? Show your work.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

k. e. = 1/2 mv^2

1/2 * 1000 * (5)^2

1/2 * 1000 * 25

12500 joules

k. e. = 1/2 mv^2

1/2 * 1000 * (10)^2

1/2 * 1000 * 100

50000

change in k. e. = final - initial

50000 - 12500

= 37500 joules

hope it helps you

ALWAYS use significant figure rules. Remember that these rules apply to all numbers that are measurements. You travel 20.0 mph f
timurjin [86]
The actual answer is 165 miles, but using significant figure rules the answer is 200. This is because the sig fig rules are as follows ...
<span>1. Non-zero digits are always significant.
2. Any zeros between two significant digits are significant.
<span>3. A final zero or trailing zeros in the decimal portion ONLY are significant.
</span></span>
So the zeroes in a number like 20 or 23,000 are NOT significant. When you add numbers you must find the addend with the lowest amount of significant figures and round the answer to that. In this case most of the addends only have one sig fig, so you round 165 to 200 to make it only have one sig fig.
